Sugar Bits - Is Janet Engaged?

In a radio interview yesterday Janet played coy when asked about being engaged or getting married. She kept saying that Jermaine says they are and the wedding date of September 26th is when her album is released. She sounds like she's in love but I wonder could this be a press thing to promote her return to music? - People

The woman who unexpectedly approached Colin Farrell while taping the Tonight Show announces, “Not only am I suing him for slander but for stalking. He says I’m a stalker, that I am there to get back at him. I am not anyone’s stalker. I’m too self-absorbed to be a stalker.” She's clearly crazy. - US Weekly

He gets help from the school, but I think the school is really overwhelmed... plus, the first like five years of his life my bf was in cancer treatments and chemo, etc. and was not physically able to do a lot of the stuff that he needed...so now we're catching up... Now that I am around, my bf has the help that he needed to really get somewhere... this last year his son had A's and B's for the first time in his life... he'd never had above a C before. So the improvement is happening, it just takes time. I really appreciate the advice though!!! And I may take you up on that sometime when school starts and I know where he's going to be for the year....

if he needs extra help the school should be providing that at no cost to you. my oldest has autism so i've been ALL through this with the school district, insurance company, regional center, etc. write me off list if you want.

He's good with laying down the rules, he just is bad about homework. His son is VERY VERY well behaved at home, but is overweight. Therefore, he gets made fun of at school a lot and acts out.... so he does bad in school and doesn't keep up on homework because he spends so much time in detention, etc. His mom drank and smoked the whole time she was pregnant, so he has learning disabilities....

Yeah, we've talked about that.... my boyfriend can't have kids. He had cancer when a few years ago and is now sterile because of chemo and radiation, etc. so it's no longer an option anyway.... and the ex is nonexistent... in two years I've never even met her.... my bf has full custody and no child support, etc. so there's no reason for her to call.
I'm not a kids person to be really honest... I just don't do well with them... I admire the hell out of people that are great with kids, because it is most certainly NOT me!!!

rkdub, you might have issues if you two end up together and have kids together. i just don't think i could even do it. i am soooo unwilling to deal with ex drama especially. i applaud those who can do it all well, but i'm simply not that selfless

very common to fight about child issues in marriages that involve children from other relationships. try to get your boyfriend to be the "bad guy" as in giving the rules out. tough on you 2, that's for sure.

my boyfriend has a son, and while my boyfriend is the most amazing thing ever, it is also a major PAIN to have a kid around that doesn't belong to me..... his mother and I differ greatly on how to raise a kid. She is a worthless drunk and I am a compulsive overachiever.... therefore, we have lots of issues. And my bf has full time custody, but whenever there are disagreements over punishments, homework, etc. I get frustrated because he's not my kid, so I can't yell at him..... well, at least not all the time!!! My guy and I have a great relationship, but that's the one thing we fight about and it's child rearing....

fb, as a stepchild to several people, i have to say that it is a rule that i will stick with. a guy with kids, esp in my generally age bracket, has living baggage. it's a terrible way to look at things, but clearly, a 20-something guy with kids was probably not Mr. Responsible and children should have their parent's partners view them as part of the package while willingly accepting that. i'm still treated like living baggage so i should know.

i love me some josh hartnett. its nice to see a set of hairy caterpillar eyebrows every now and again! hahaha...who is crazier alec or kim they are in the news but who cares? i kind of do cause i think they are both talented but i bet they are still crazy for each other and that is why they go nuts!
